I'd consult your surgeon & gyno so you can make informed decisions.

Pro-life or pro-choice I'd take a min to have a quiet moment & think through your decision maybe do a pro & con sheet for each.

allons-y

If preggo you will need to work doubly hard on your nutrition that is all. Babies DO happen (often when least expected.

At a seminar that I went to the doctor said the main issue is that you and baby get enough nutrients and not get malnourished, good luck.

I got pregnant 1 year post op... I struggled with dehydration through it all. I too was on multiple birth controls. I didn't find out until later that the birth control pill doesn't work the same for sleeved females because we don't have as much of a stomach to absorb the medication. It hasn't been proved which is what my OB said.. But.. That was her opinion. Consider your options and do what's best.

....Take a little time. Make an informed decision. Do not let others beliefs sway your decision. this is YOUR life, and you deserve to be on the top of the list--especially now. Good luck--it could happen to any of us--(except me! Im riding the abstinence bus--but I'll hop off eventually!)

I spoke with my surgeons head nurse. She emailed me a new nutrition plan with altered Vitamins and Protein guidelines. She is not super concerned. I mean they surely arent excited but she said "it happens and it just part of Gods plan"

Not freaking out so much anymore. I will keep yall updated but so far it seems like everything will be alright.

Mamachef, it's a truly amazing blessing! CONGRATULATIONS! :D.

I was warned about this by my nutritionist as I have PCOS. He stated that my fertility could 'rebound' greatly after the op and I should be extremely careful. I'm on the pill at the moment. Anyone got any contraception ideas, other than condoms, which would be 'good' for sleevers? (Save a full-body neoprene suit or a vow of chastity?!!) Anyone tried those three monthly injections?

I'm on the depo injections as me and my husband have decided not to have children. To save any accidents I felt this was the most reliable method of contraception for me. I've been on them for 17 years. As you have no period, I just have to take extra Calcium tablets for healthy bones. I didn't have to stop them pre op, I just had to have 6 weeks of heparin injections post op. All worth it for me and my peace of mind.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
